Fast-rising actress and film producer, Omotanwa Balogun, also known as Tanny Bee, is set to act Unclád in a new movie,
The actress, who joined Nollywood 10 years ago and debuted as a movie producer in 2006 with Aforesunise (The Ingrate), will take part in a stríptease performance alongside other actresses in a yet-to-be titled Yoruba movie, according to findings.
Taking her up on the plan to act Unclád, Tanny Bee told P.M.NEWS Nollywood Reel that “it is a movie that will be shot at a stríp club here in Lagos, and I will take the role of the lead stríp dancer in the movie.”
Recently, Tanny Bee has been in and out of the gym, most likely to keep fit for the movie role.
The actress also told P.M.NEWS Nollywood Reel that she has been going through a rigorous training at a popular stríp club in Ikeja, together with other actors who would act as stríppers in the movie.
"We may not allow professional stríppers to take part in the movie, but at the end people will understand the message we want to pass to the world,” she added.
The movie producer cum actress said the forthcoming movie was scripted to address some societal issues affecting the youth, especially the female folk.
She debunked the speculation that her new movie might be seen as a soft-índecency, going by its theme and plot. “I am a devout Muslim and will never do índecency, although I’m a professional actress who would like to interpret any role.
“The aim of the movie isn’t to promote Unclothédness, but to help our society in the fight against immoral acts and indecent dressing, among others.
"Besides, we know this new film will go across borders and whatever message we pass to the world will determine the impression they will have about us and our culture,” she explained.
According to Tanny Bee, several Nollywood artistes have been penciled for the new movie that will be directed by Bayo Tijani.
